The treasure room was behind the throne. The door didn’t open no matter how much Myles pushed it. He saw a hole in the dole. Instinctively, he placed the Boss Cat’s star crystal in that because it fit there.The rock door then opened by itself, he was shocked because it was an empty room.“The heck? Is there some sort of an illusion?” he hesitantly entered the room. Only after he took a few steps forward, he was able to see the two tiny translucent discs floating in the middle of the room. Because of the way light was arranged, he wasn’t able to see them before. “What are these?" he hesitantly touched them. They got sucked into his body and appeared as lenses covering his eyes, almost becoming one with the eyes.He didn’t feel like anything had changed.Not minding too much, he walked away. The remnant cat monsters, more than thirty of them, had gathered in the village by then and came rushing at him. They were fast, as usual, but to Myles’ great surprise, he saw them move in slow mot
A few minutes earlier.In the flower district’s dungeon bureau department building.“Sir, there’s a signal of a new dungeon,” one of the workers said. “It’s a C-rank dungeon, currently forming on building number 232, Block C of Sector 12.”“Sector 12?” the bureau’s manager slightly smiled. “That’s the public sector where no guild is located. This is great. Let’s put the dungeon to auction immediately.”“Yes, sir.”The bureau held an online auction for the newly formed c-rank dungeon’s rights, and many guilds from not just the flower district but other districts also competed.In the end, it was bought by the Greed guild for a whooping price of 2500 gold coins, which was worth more than 400 years salary of Sercy as her monthly salary was below 1 gold coin.The Greed guild dispatched a full-fledged C-rank team that was already in the flower district. This was a team of five members, all of whom were C-rank venerers.The leader of the team was Yamira, a Master C-ranker who used a sword a
“Who the hell are you?” Rodriguez’s expression quickly changed after seeing Myles. “I’m not obligated to tell you, am I?” Myles coolly responded. Now, Rodriguez was annoyed by his response, and when he saw the D* badge on Myles and also the bluebird badge of the Dawn guild, he didn’t think twice about anything else and just jumped at Myles. “A trash like you dares to enter the dungeon illegally?” he threw his gauntlet fist with strength. “Hill Blaster!” Myles cross-blocked the attack with his arms but got pushed back almost to the entrance of the portal. “Ngh!” he ground his teeth. It was a pretty powerful attack, and his arms trembled. “Why are you attacking me?” “Shut up,” Rodriguez started throwing punches left and right. “Hill Chain Blaster!” He pushed Myles back, forcing him to enter the dungeon. Rodriguez entered the dungeon as well, but the others didn’t. They just stood there and waited, expecting their teammate to defeat Myles and then bring him out. However, it was Rodr
The name Myles Mertzel became quite popular overnight in two districts. One was the Flower district where the D-rank goblin dungeon had broken out. The other was the Promise district where the Dawn guild was situated.Every guild in these two districts began looking for Myles Mertzel for many reasons. Some wanted to take him into their guild, but guilds like Whiteblade and Crescent Knight were looking to silence him secretly, so they could regain some of their lost face.The local bureau in the Promise district sent a letter of thanks as well as the reward for Myles’ contribution.The rewards included 50 gold coins, and some of the knives that the goblins were using.Sercy was over the moon after receiving the reward. This was a little lower than she expected, but this would help her start renovating the guild building, which was necessary if she wanted to attract attention from other venerers.Judas, the old guard of the guild, asked her for money, but she shook her head and told him
In a bar at the border of the Flower district, Myles was drinking on his own. His eyes were closed, for he was focusing on his sense of hearing, putting vera to use.Alcohol helped in naturally stimulating his blood, which made it easier for him to broaden his range, at least his sense of hearing. He was able to isolate the sounds and listen to only the voices he wanted. And he ended up overhearing some interesting conversation.“Hey, did you hear the news?”“What news?”“They say that Fiscia, the underwater kingdom, was utterly destroyed, and that the Fish King was killed.”“What? It was the Sky King the other day, and now it’s the Fish King? Don’t tell me, both were killed by the same guy?”“I don’t know if it’s Levyn Lordemon who also killed the Fish King or not, but actually, the kingdom of mermen was destroyed before the Sky King was killed. It’s just that people discovered lately about the mermen incident.”“That makes sense. Not many venerers would dare travel underwater. But
BANG~!The middle-aged just shot from a point blank range. The bullet should have pierced through Myles’ temple and come from the other side. However, that didn’t happen.The bullet missed.Myles grabbed the middle-aged man by the neck and slammed him down on the table, drilling his head down through the table and the many bottles below. The glass pieces went into his face, making him scream and howl in horror.Everyone looked at Myles in shock.“Big Bullet got defeated so easily…”“He’s a veteran D-ranker. How can he lose so helplessly?”“Who’s this guy? How did he dodge the bullet from such a close range? Just how fast is he?”“I heard Big Bullet say his name. It’s Myles Mertzel.”“Isn’t that the name of the guy that cleared the goblin dungeon recently?”“Look at his badge. He’s an Ace D-ranker!”As the people nervously chatted, Myles plucked the money sack that was at the middle-aged man’s waist. There were silver and gold coins inside. He tossed a couple of gold coins on the still
The entire bureau building in the Flower district was destroyed. But what was even more shocking was that all the bureau members were defeated, and the person that had defeated them was none other than Myles.He didn’t run away but stayed outside the building, with his bone sword in hand.The locals didn’t even dare approach him, but then Eric arrived at the scene.He recognized Myles, but he found it hard to believe that Myles managed to beat all the bureau members by himself. He used the starmeter from a distance, and the reading came as three full stars.“An Ace B-ranker!”Eric swallowed his breath because only days ago the reading came as an Ace D-ranker, but now the reading was showing that Myles was stronger than him.“Just what kind of a star crystal did he consume for him to have become this strong in a short amount of time?”As far as Eric knew, Myles only entered a C-rank dungeon recently, so how did he manage to grow into an Ace B-ranker?“Myles Mertzel…” Eric brought out h
Most of the elder council was made out of old guys who weren’t venerers and were just members of families with rich heritage.If there was anything common among the elders, it would be that all of them had sentient weapons.The 100 elders of the council would meet monthly in the underground floor of the bureau headquarters to discuss important events.However, in the past month or so, they had been meeting every single day to mainly talk about Levyn Lordemon.“Who is this guy exactly?”“Our data says he’s Phil Gabriel who was only as strong as a B-ranked Venerer, but he calls himself Levyn Lordemon.”“Not only did he defeat the Sky King, he also defeated the Fish King and his entire kingdom.”“This man might come to our kingdom next. We must be well prepared.”“We’ve already informed the Three Kings, so we only need to worry about making other arrangements for the worst case scenario.”“Worst case? What would that be?”“Levyn joined hands with the Vampire King. And then there’s anothe
